      I read that as DEI hires… 10 PMs for every engineer. The blood suckling corp I’m trying to exit has entire departments (plural!) of women, gay men, and poc that do nothing of real value. But the CDO really wanted to get all these “minorities” into tech! They run meetings with each other constantly and pass project status power points around like they are critical for the business to function. … The glass eye refers to their complete lack of knowledge of any technology.

        Workers: “our bosses are inept”

        You: “the gays are making their lives worse!”

        This is what Fox News does to people’s brains. Truly sickening.

            Yeah, those are just as bad. I simply didn’t want to waste more brain power on this individual than absolutely necessary to make my point.

        Racist, misogynist, xenophobic, bigoted, made-up story about a company hiring women+minorities into dedicated departments which then don’t do any work

        They must have a lot of departments full of white, straight men to compensate, otherwise the company would surely go under. /s

        edit: before anyone thinks I actually meant this seriously…I was reacting to a ridiculously bigoted comment by some troll (I know…I shouldn’t have reacted) claiming their company had entire departments full of women+minorities not doing any work. The comment no longer exists of course. I

        My company had a big diversity push, but it worked well for us, and ended up making it a much more pleasant to work.

        Are you sure those are DEI hires, or just the kind of people your co-workers want to be around?
